The search for error code 403 led to the Lennox support page where it provided a possible cause of ‘Possible causes of error code 403: A sensor has detected high pressure in the gas valve assembly.’ As typing, instability, and fluctuations lead to high pressure in the gas valve some more checks were done to verify whether this is the safe cause based on sensors performance in relation to such affliction and supply provided by other systems. The sensing takes lightly as there is no occupancy or electricity time period and as safety factors check out, it will go ahead and restart automatically after 10 minutes have elapsed since shut down, but if there are any destabilization or fluctuations again within 10-min.
Error code 403 is quite dangerous and can lead to the shutdown of the self-cleaning procedure if not rectified in time. In such a circumstance, an engineer must investigate the cause of this error code and resolve it as soon as possible.
